    Hey John, thanks for the kind words. I made this video years ago because it seemed every day I was having someone ask the question of what is Dual Rate, What is Expo? But yes, it has helped many over the years and you are exactly right, it's all about helping other modelers out there get into the hobby and understand what these things are about. www.Rc-Help.com

My question is , do all RX have the same set up, because my Futaba 7C has the opposite setting. - Expo gives slow start to center movement and fast to finish, and + Expo gives start to center fast and slow to finish..

    I have always looked for a very snappy tail on my helicopters. One thing you can do to help tame down a tail is move the ball on the servo further into the center, or even calibrate the tail and not quite go to the full end travel of the tail blades. Of course if you want to give DR a try on the tail, go for it. Just make sure you are ready to hit that throttle hold switch in case something goes wrong. And of course, let us know how your testing goes.

    By far Spektrum is the most user friendly. I started out with Futaba and almost gave up on the hobby. I then sold the 7CH and bought a Spektrum dx7s. Nothing against Futaba because I still use them on my cars and trucks but for flying, SPEKTRUM is the way to go.
